    Rocky balboa being stopped in two rounds by Clubber Lang but takes fifteen rounds of hard shots against Drago. Go figure.

    Holyfield vs. Riddick Bowe in their third fight. Only time Holyfield was ever stopped in his prime.

    Tua destroying Ruiz inside of 30 seconds, the only man to stop Ruiz as well. After a boring, huggfest Ruiz victory its always pleasing to pull out the tape of Tua knocking him the Fark out.

    ............It's been mentioned, but here's the clip of Robinson knocking Fullmer out. Spectacular shot; Fullmer was as iron-chinned and tough as a fighter can be, and he was completely incapacitated.

    I was thinking the same thing. Ruiz sure went on to prove his chin, though. I can't even recall many times even seeing Ruiz get rocked.... Tua was some puncher, vastly underrated.
